Finding landlords who will sign off on Airbnb arbitrage is the single most common bottleneck for DIY operators. Here's how we do it for our clients.
Where the listings live
Zillow, Apartments.com, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, local rental groups, property management Google Maps results. Cast wide.
What you're filtering for
Furnished or willing-to-furnish 2BR+ in a market with strong Airbnb demand. Owner-managed beats big property managers. Long DOM (days on market) signals motivated landlord.
The pitch
Guaranteed rent every month, professional maintenance, no vacancy risk for them. Frame it as a corporate hospitality lease, not 'I want to put it on Airbnb.'
Why we don't make our clients do this
Our acquisitions team makes hundreds of these calls per week. The hit rate compounds with volume. We close deals our clients would have walked away from.
Where BNB Launch fits in
BNB Launch is a done-for-you operation that handles every step above - market selection, landlord outreach, lease signing, LLC formation, furnishing, listing, and ops. Founded by Colin Wright, who used this exact model to scale to 150+ US Airbnb properties and get his own E2 visa approved.
